Tue Mar 7 202317:02Wendell Carter Jr. Will Remain Sidelined On Tuesday
Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) will not play on Tuesday against the Milwaukee Bucks despite originally being listed as questionable. His left hip issue will force him to miss at least one more game and that means Moritz Wagner will likely stay in the starting five. Carter has had a rough go of it this season as he'll now miss more than 20 games with various ailments. Wagner should be a good streaming option for those that might need some rebounds and a handful of points.

Sat Nov 19 202216:43Wendell Carter Jr. Questionable Versus The Pacers

Sat Apr 9 202217:31Wendell Carter Jr., Franz Wagner Ruled Out For Sunday’s Game
Orlando Magic power forward/center Wendell Carter Jr. (wrist) and small forward Franz Wagner (wrist) will miss Sunday's season finale vs. Miami. Carter enjoyed a breakout campaign in 2021-22, having averaged a double-double (15 points, 10.5 rebounds) across his 62 games. Wagner is a candidate for First-team All-Rookie honors after averaging 15.2 points on 46.8% shooting across 79 outings. Their absence Sunday will pave the way for Terrence Ross, Chuma Okeke, and Moritz Wagner to all take on larger roles, upping the trio's DFS intrigue.

Thu Apr 7 202209:44Wendell Carter Jr. To Miss Thursday's Game Against Hornets
Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (wrist) will be sidelined once again on Thursday as the team faces the Charlotte Hornets. The fourth-year pro hasn't been on the court since March 28 as he's been hampered by a left wrist sprain. He hasn't been ruled out for the season yet, but the team only has one game left after Thursday, so it's likely we've seen the end of Carter's 2021-22 campaign. Chuma Okeke has been filling in as a member of the starting five with Carter out. He's been struggling with his shot lately as he's averaging just 7.0 points per game while shooting 27.3% from the field over three April outings.

Mon Apr 4 202222:02Wendell Carter Jr. Sidelined Again On Tuesday
Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (wrist) won't play on Tuesday against Cleveland. The former Duke Blue Devil most recently missed his last three games because of a sprained left wrist, and with the season coming to an end, he may not see the floor again until 2022-23. Franz Wagner (ankle) and Chuma Okeke should continue to benefit without Carter in the lineup. However, Wagner is questionable, so if he doesn't suit up, Okeke could thrive as a value option in DFS formats. Moritz Wagner, who had 18 points and nine boards on Sunday against the Knicks, could also be more involved.

Sun Apr 3 202209:49Wendell Carter Jr. Won't Play Versus Knicks
Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (wrist) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New York Knicks. This shouldn't come as much of a surprise as the Magic continue to tank with a few games left in the regular season. Chuma Okeke should continue to start and be a decent streaming option. Moritz Wagner and Robin Lopez should see a boost off the bench, but Okeke is the much better option.
